Jimmy Nelson – before they pass away

Top stylist Jetteke van Lexmond is inspired by fashion, travelling, art and books. Those lovely books. In this period of giving and receiving, she’s selected the greatest books to have on your coffee table.

“This English photographer has travelled around the world to capture the tribus in its natural habitat. This because they’ll all be gone in a few years. It’s a great document and the photos are breathtaking. A friend of mine felt inspired after reading this book, and after hearing Jimmy speak at an event about his travels and passions, to quit her job and really question herself on what she wants in life. Someone else I know burst in tears during his speech. This book is a gift to get or give yourself.

If you’re in Amsterdam on 19 December from 20:00-21:00, Jimmy will sign books at the American Book Center.” €128 www.abc.nl
